Legendary is teaming with Titan Comics to expand the Monsterverse multimedia franchise with Return to Skull Island, an all-new comic book series spinning out of Netflix’s Skull Island: The Animated Series which promises to bring fans deeper into the world of Kong and the mysteries of his home.
Written by Simon Furman (Transformers) with art by Christopher Jones (Doctor Who: Once Upon a Time Lord), Return to Skull Island will follow a small group of survivors who find themselves stranded on the perilous South Pacific island where they face life-threatening challenges and fight for survival in a land where every creature is a threat—including Kong himself,
“Skull Island’s shadows hide untold stories, fierce battles, and creatures unlike anything seen before,” said Titan Comics editor Louis Yamani. “Marrying brilliant illustrations and epic storytelling, we see a new side to Kong and his kingdom. We can’t wait to share more this June!”
“Partnering with Titan Comics on Return to Skull Island allows us to expand the Monsterverse in exciting new ways,” added Robert Napton, SVP & Publisher, Legendary Comics. “Bringing Skull Island from TV to comics lets us dive deeper into its mysteries, offering fans thrilling new adventures in Kong’s world.”
